I saw some people report that their dishes are pointing in unusual directions so it would explain that, and that my service is fine since I only use the polar orbiting ones ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm posting this from my Starlink connection, been working fine here. I'm close to the arctic circle so maybe the polar orbiting satellites are not affected

I thought those pans that are marketed as "granite" with a speckled pattern where just PTFE coated aluminium, is this something different?

Just whatever you get by default with pip install numpy... Changing the benchmark to run with a 1024x1024x1024 matrix instead of a 128x128x128 does speed up numpy significantly though Python 119.189 GFLOPS Naive:

Here's the same benchmark with np.matmul instead of native python (on M2 MBP) Python 4.216 GFLOPS Naive: 6.400 GFLOPS 1.52x faster than Python Vectorized: 22.232 GFLOPS

I did just that, it's 120x faster than numpy. See my comment to OP.

Haha! This is great! Maybe it could be less jarring if you put a low pass filter on the angle changes

Yeah, just realized that and was about to edit my comment. Found an issue tracking the black replacement bit: https://github.com/charliermarsh/ruff/issues/1904

This is great, I'm going to switch to this from black. Being used to working in other languages I feel like I'm swimming in molasses when using Python. It's funny that all good things for Python are not written in Python. Say

I'm offended! I don't click around like some lowly peasant, I navigate by keyboard like God intended.

In theory it seems neat but in practice I'm here with 10 tabs all called "+page.svelte" or "+page.server.ts" and it completely breaks my workflow since I can't tell them apart or navigate with fuzzy name matchi

SvelteKit's routing pattern is anything but clean. It uses filesystem based routes where every file is called "+page.svelte" (or +page.server.js/ts for API only routes). For anything but a demo app with just a couple of

Looking forward to trying this, VSCode is great but I really miss the performance of Sublime Text. I hope they get the plugin system right, killer feature would be if it could load VSCode plugins (incredibly hard to pull off, yes)

Automatic dark/light mode tracking sunset/sunrise is the best of both worlds IMHO.

Camera phones killed it but generative AI models will revive it. Who cares if someone takes a photo of you on the beach when they can just as well ask the AI to see you nude in any situation they can dream of... That, or the burka will beco

It's interesting that Lex is so polarizing, I personally find him a great host. Him almost never doing research is objectively false though. He often reads books/articles/tweets written by the guests and asks about them for e

I can't recommend docker swarm enough, it does 95% of what you need in k8s without requiring someone full-time just to manage it.
